Family-friendly holiday rentals in Hawks Nest

It's always a pleasure staying at Nundoobah, very peaceful, private and great river access. Maurie and Deidre are great accommodating hosts.

Phil’s place was lovely. The space was great for us - 7 friends getting away for the weekend. Kitchen is great, outside area is great and bedrooms and bathroom are comfy. The location is very peaceful but close to Smiths Lake and the pub. We would happily stay again.

We had a lovely stay. Peaceful and private, awesome wildlife encounters one morning when 3 roos chilled out on the deck. The view is stunning. Appreciated the basic pantry, books, games, pool towels and tennis racquets.

Sooooooo much fun!!! Would definitely stay again asap. The animals were lovely, the view was unbelievable and it was so fun just hanging around the area!!!

We had a great family vacation at Susan's place. Susan's house was very cosy with all the amenities required. Highly recommended. Susan was very accommodating to all our needs.

Very comfortable home in a lovely quiet and secure area. Very happy with our stay and would be keen to rebook another time .

We loved our stay at Le Chateau! The house is very well kept and big enough for large groups with multiple seating areas. The kitchen is great for those who love cooking with 2 fridges. Very clear instructions and manuals for using AC / stove / spa etc. Would definitely recommend a stay here and would love to return

Highest recommendation possible for Armando & his gorgeous home. We had issues with another airbnb & Armando was very understanding & accommodating last minute. Our teens were surprised & delighted to find A had left some chocolate bars for our arrival, a thoughtful treat after our holiday disruption. The peaceful and well thought out gardens, complete with water feature & large goldfish really are amazing. The home & beds are very comfortable, tastefully decorated. The ducted air conditioning made the difference in the heat, with sleeping and during the day when we were resting after being out at the beaches, shopping 5 mins up the road at Westfield Kotara, op shopping at various vintage 2nd hand stores, finding bubble tea or visiting Taronga Zoo in Sydney. There's so much to do and we thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Having 2 showers with toilets & a bath is always helpful. This home truly is amazing, as is Armando. Grab some cooking oil, your food & luggage & enjoy this home!

House was very spacious and comfortable, right next to the beach was only about a couple seconds walk, perfect for spending the whole day there! Perfect walking distance from the shops as well

A peaceful setting backing onto bush. The only visitors are the native animals and bird life who are very entertaining. Roger is very personable and easy to communicate with making our stay most enjoyable. The home is easy to live in being open plan and there’s plenty of space for all the stuff we had with us. Beautifully clean and welcoming inside and out. It was a lovely surprise having everyday essentials already catered for and plenty of toiletries on hand as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend Roger and Robyn’s Nest Hideaway to those who value peace and quiet.

This listing was spacious, comfortable and had everything you need for a great weekend in the Hunter valley. Easy, secure parking and two great decks to enjoy

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Airbnb! From the moment I arrived, the host was incredibly welcoming and made sure I had everything I needed. They went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable, offering great recommendations for local spots and checking in to make sure all was well. The property itself was stunning! It was beautifully decorated, clean, and had all the amenities I could have asked for. The space was both cosy and stylish, with plenty of room to relax and unwind. It truly felt like a home away from home. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with a fantastic host and a lovely property. Will definitely return!

Great place in a great location, a lazy stroll from the Newcastle Baths & lots of eateries & things to do nearby.

Windmill Lodge was fantastic a perfect little retreat nestled in a quiet suburb with plenty to do in and around the property. All facilities were as described, our family of 16 thoroughly enjoyed our time at Windmill Lodge. We fully utilised the BBQ, pool, coffee machine and dining table for our family meals. Fully recommend for a stay if you have a lot of people to accommodate.

Our stay at Sascha’s Retreat was fantastic! An absolutely amazing property with so much to do that you don’t ever need to leave. It is in a beautiful and private location with views as far as the eye can see, and has everything you need for an action-packed weekend or a peaceful getaway. Stephen was a brilliant host, extremely responsive to any queries, super friendly and helpful. We will most definitely be returning and highly recommend Sascha’s Retreat.

We loved staying at Shauna's place in Spencer. A lovely secluded house and cabin in Breakfast creek. the house is expansive and cosy with plentiful amenities. We loved feeding and petting the beautiful horses as well - Molly was definitely the most inquisitive ❤️

Absolutely loved our stay at La Vigna ☺️ It’s hard to please 12 people but the property suites us all perfectly either as a group or break aways on our own. Would highly recommend and we will certainly visit again. Thank you Micah & Denny

Had a fabulous stay, with many hours spent relaxing around the pool and bbq ! A very comfortable well located home with plentiful space for summer fun and entertainment. Proximity to Shoal Bay, numerous beaches and walks provide ample activity for all the family. We hope to be back next year!

Beautiful places at a beautiful location not too far out of the town. Clean and spacious. My group had a relaxed stay here and will come back again.

Could not fault anything about the stay, the place was beautiful, clean, and very peaceful. The bed was comfortable which is a must. Would highly recommend. The communication and ease of check in was also great.

Great New Years experience. The cottage was in a private area, but still close to different sites like the Hunter Valley Gardens, it was a great getaway from the city!!

Peaceful location, had a great girls weekend away 💜 next time I’ll just remember to bring more bug spray, there were more mozzies than I expected to be at the location, and I did not come prepared enough as the person who is generally the one bitten in the group, this is an error on my part

This was one of the best places we have stayed at! Lush, green and peaceful! Clean, with everything we needed during our stay! Liz was super friendly, helpful with local recommendations and easy to communicate with.

Great Spot. Dean was a great host. The until was everything we needed for a couple of nights. Will be back for another surf trip. Thanks Dean
